#secretstylist - Blogger Secret Santa and Come Dine With Me!

A little while ago, the lovely guys at House of Fraser emailed me to see if I'd be part of a blogger secret santa. Being a huge lover of this type of swap, I immediately agreed. A few weeks later, I was posted some lovely necklaces -Lonna & Lilly Set of Three blue necklaces.

I wore them out at the weekend for another round of Come Dine With Me with my friends. The WhatsApp discussion before dinner was around wearing our pyjamas to dinner - I think a lot of us were feeling tired in the pre-christmas rush!

The necklaces were lovely, I loved the layering look, although I had to get lots of help from Sam to get them to line up perfectly! It would have been easier if they were one clasp at the back for me! I loved them though and the girls said they were really dainty and cute. They were a great colour for me, and I love gold over silver so are great for my wardrobe! Thank you very much to my secret santa, they are very me!

Dinner was lovely as usual! We had a fancy feast of cheeseboard and beer tasting for starter, pies for main course with the most yum cauliflower cheese, and sticky toffee pudding for pudding (from this Jamie Oliver recipe which was just DELICIOUS! It was lovely and casual, with everyone bringing chairs, drinks and lots of gossup!

Next Come Dine with Me is supposed to be me so if you have any great ideas please let me know! I need recipes which can be cooked in a tiny kitchen, hopefully in advance!
